LONDON — Planning officials at Westminster council in London have ruled to reject plans by a media mogul to create the UK's most expensive flat.

Ashley Tabor, who owns radio stations including Classic FM, applied to knock two properties in the luxury Knightsbridge Apartments together to create a £200 million penthouse flat complete with 10 bedrooms, a cinema, and a butler's pantry.

Tabor had hoped to create the apartment, which could have been worth around £200 million, after buying the flat adjoining his existing home earlier this year. The Knightsbridge Apartments is a luxury development near Harrod's in central London.
